The house is for sale for more than 2.7 billion VND for a house with an area of ​​​​61.2m2 with strange information: “The house has a ghost, need to sell urgently. Book size as shown. In the middle of the night, I often hear the cry of a woman, sometimes hear the sound of children laughing in the kitchen. Can’t live anymore, sell cheap urgently, free of charge. Goodwill reduces fortune”. Illustration Or information that a house more than 30m2 in District 4, Ho Chi Minh City is also for sale urgently for 2 billion VND. Accompanied by a description: “In the middle of the night, I often hear the crying of a middle-aged woman who committed suicide… The cry is getting louder, sometimes in the kitchen, sometimes in the toilet. Can’t live anymore, sell quickly and cheaply.” When buying old houses, buyers often find out quite thoroughly, find out from the neighbors around to see what the reason for selling the old owner’s house is, what has happened to that house so far. unusual? Many people still assume that old houses used to have people who died unexpectedly due to murder, suicide, accident… or even for no reason but were rumored to be ‘ghost’. Even houses with divorced spouses, quarrels, bankrupts… are often picky about buyers because most buyers are afraid of being “snatched”. However, there is also a view that not every old house or old piece of land has an unusual death, or the old owner has something bad happen and should not be bought. Because, where no one dies, there must be times of sickness and disease according to the law of birth – old age – illness – death. Therefore, if the house is in a reasonable location and sells cheaply, still buy it. Sharing views with PV Infonet on “should buy old houses that are rumored to have ‘ghosts’ or not, architect, feng shui master Hoang Tra – Deputy Director of the Institute of Oriental Physics said: Home buyers need to carefully study the problem. There is a case where a house is lost when people are old, so buying an old house in this case is not a problem. “But if you are buying a house located on the land left by your ancestors, many old people have died on that land, often according to the concept that they will still linger on this land, the buyer needs to consider. In this case, there are many houses in the countryside, but few in the city,” said architect Hoang Tra. However, according to architect Hoang Tra, in case a house has lost someone due to sudden death, suicide, accident, etc., if the buyer knows and has been worried and hesitant, it is best not to buy anymore because of mental problems. reason was uncomfortable, bought back anxious, insecure, difficult to resolve. “Houses with ‘negative energy’, even many ‘grudges’ – the word used to refer to houses with murders and tragic deaths of many people, these lands are often very rare when someone dares to buy and bring their family. back there. However, some people still buy but buy that house for business, it depends on their decision,” said architect Hoang Tra. But for those who decide to buy a ‘ghost house’ to live in, according to architect Hoang Tra, they must be really confident people, or have spiritual masters to help them behave spiritually with that land. , so that everything is in harmony. In fact, there have also been cases where people went to buy an old house, and then after rebuilding it, they discovered that there were graves and remains on the land, but still worked in, solving spiritual and psychological problems fully, the owner still doing well, that’s pretty common.

According to editor Doroteya Borisova of biên PhoneArena , how Apple handles the account depends on whether relatives seek legal intervention or not. In iCloud’s terms and conditions, Apple says that it can proactively delete iCloud accounts that have been inactive for a year or more, or have been discontinued by users. The data stored in the iPhone, iCloud of the deceased is a difficult problem to handle if the loved one does not have their password. Photo: iMore. This provision indicates that Apple may, in its sole discretion, check whether an account has been discontinued before proceeding with the deletion of the account. However, this will be notified 30 days in advance via the user’s email. Who can access the iCloud of the deceased? iCloud is inherently where all of your iPhone’s information is stored, including backups, photos, videos, iMessages and texts, and purchase history for Apple services (including music and movies). You can assume that a deceased person’s Apple ID will be assigned to the closest family members, to recover the last stored memories. However, according to the legal terms that the user agreed to from the beginning, the loved one does not automatically access the account of the deceased. The clause also stipulates that if there is an intervention from the law, relatives can access the data of the deceased. The procedure to prove to Apple includes providing the name and Apple ID of the deceased person who is requesting access, proof of ownership of the Apple ID, and a court order. Forgot password feature when logging into iCloud. Photo: lifewire.com Plus, if you can access the deceased person’s iCloud-linked email account, legal troubles won’t be an issue. By using the “Forgot Password” feature when signing in to iCloud, you can easily change your account’s password with the account’s associated email. However, Borisova also noted that this practice may violate Apple’s terms of use, leading to the suspension or termination of the account if detected. Here’s what happened to user Jeff Fischer in 2020. Fischer said he was a relative of a deceased person. This person’s account still has 100 USD payable in iTunes. Fischer said he wants to recover the money and send it back to the account holder’s sister. “It took me a lot of phone calls and emails to Apple support to find an employee who knew these issues. I provide the death certificate and notarized copy of my legal status as the decedent’s representative. However, instead of transferring the money from one Apple ID to another, they insist on closing the account and then issuing a check for the remaining credit,” Fischer said. So what about the iPhone? If the deceased is the only individual with the iPhone’s password, access to the phone is not possible even though you are authorized to access their iCloud. Even the FBI does not have a special way to get the password on the iPhone. The only way is to have to set up iCloud on a separate phone or completely factory reset the iPhone of the deceased. However, this means that any information that has not been backed up on iCloud will be lost. Apple’s Legacy Contact feature in iOS 15 update later this year. Photo: PhoneArena. From iOS 15, iCloud account holders can set up trusted contacts, allowing information to be passed on to these people if the account holder dies. Those on the trusted list can then request access to the deceased person’s account. They just need to provide a copy of the death certificate.

Seeing this situation, Tong Tu felt uneasy, so he brought all the accumulated experience for a long time to write the book series “Cleaning Oan Tap Luc”. In the book “Tai Oan Tap Luc” there are many unbelievable cases of injustice in an era where technology has not yet developed. Was the victim suffocated in the fire or burned after death? One night in 1238, a fire in the western suburbs destroyed the entire house. After the fire was extinguished, residents discovered a charred body in it. The dead man was originally a builder who had no grudge against anyone in the village. Upon receiving the report of the crime, Tong Tu prison immediately went to the scene. During the autopsy, Master Tong Tu noticed that the corpse had many abnormalities. Moreover, next to the body, the victim intentionally left an autograph written with only one word “Fill” . By using vinegar and alcohol, Tong Tu found traces of the perpetrator’s crime. (Photo: Sohu) Although burned black, but the dead person’s throat is completely clean, there is no soot, based on the principle that if a living person encounters a fire, in the process of breathing will often accidentally inhale a lot of smoke and dust. the dead do not. Therefore, he confirmed the victim was burned after death. Although the fire was extinguished with water, the clues were long gone, but Tong Tu had his own thoughts. He decided to examine it again and found that the dead body had a wound, like being stabbed with a knife. This fatal wound caused the victim to die, then someone set fire to destroy the evidence. Vinegar has the effect of dissolving blood stains, proving that the victim has been killed and then burned. (Photo: Sohu) Master Song Tu ordered his subordinates to clean up the scene, sweep away the dust where the victim’s body was found, and then poured white vinegar and wine on the ground. Just a moment, after the wine and vinegar had evaporated, there was indeed a streak of blood on the floor. Indeed, the victim was stabbed to death, but who committed the crime? According to traditional Chinese medicine, vinegar is warm and has the effect of removing blood stasis, promoting blood circulation, reducing swelling and detoxifying. As for the explanation of modern science, vinegar has the ability to dissolve animal proteins. Therefore, in this case, Master Tong Tu took advantage of the properties of vinegar to affect the hematoma at the scene, causing it to dissolve and appear. The truth is revealed Based on the evidence, Song Xu suspects that the killer is definitely related to the word “Dien” that the victim tried to save at the scene. But with just one word “Fill” how to determine if the victim is targeting the name or something of the offender? After comparing the knife wounds, Tong Tu concluded that the victim had been stabbed to death. (Photo: Sohu) Song Tu sends a head to investigate the relationships surrounding the builder. Clues began to appear, and the head reported that before his death, the victim had come to help a rich man in the village to build a wall. Immediately after the completion of the work, this builder died. At this time, Tong Tu put his doubts on this incident, he looked more closely and discovered that the housekeeper of the rich house was named Dien That , is similar to the word “Fill” that the victim saved. He ordered a search of Tian Qi’s house and found a bloody dagger. Although Tian Qi insisted on arguing, when comparing the wound on the body, it completely coincided with his knife. After interrogation, Dien That admitted that he killed the builder under the orders of the rich man. As it turned out, that year there was a famine, in order to help the poor, Tong Tu Dai proposed to his superiors the plan of using rice from the rich in the village to distribute to everyone. The rich man devised a plan to hire people to build a wall to block the granary because he did not want to divide the rice among the people. But when the victim finished building, the rich man was afraid of revealing the story, so he sent the housekeeper to kill the man and silence him. So, thanks to the application of profound medical knowledge combined with keen observation, Master Tong Tu once again successfully solved the case and exonerated the dead. Simultaneously with this discovery, he contributed significantly to the next generation with many suggestions to find evidence to impeach many perpetrators.

Cable car at the famous Gulmarg ski area. Photo: Getty. On June 25, 2017, a serious cable car failure occurred at the famous Gulmarg ski resort, Kashmir province, India. Local officials said the cause of the accident was bad weather. Specifically, strong gusts of wind uprooted a large tree, and then poured into the cable car system, causing the cable to break. According to the Times of India, the cabin carrying seven people, including two children, was thrown away and all were killed. The victims included a family of four from New Delhi, three others from Kashmir and Tangmarg. It is known that the cable car system at Gulmarg has an altitude of 4,100m. From this cable car, visitors can see the snow-capped Himalayas all year round. Cable car broke in Pakistan, the cabin fell from a height of 120m The broken cable car in Pakistan has never been licensed to operate. Photo: Express. Just 4 days after the cable car accident in India, on June 29, 2017, another cable car broke occurred at Murree resort in the village of Charra Pani, about 30km north of Islamabad, Pakistan. . The incident happened when the villagers of Charra Pani used the cable car as a means of crossing the river. Twelve people were killed and two others injured when the cable car cabin fell from a height of 120 meters. Local officials informed that this is a cable car system built by the people themselves and not yet licensed by the authorities. The fact that this system has not been censored from the beginning and is not regularly maintained is the reason for the accident at Murree. Cable car changing direction lost control in Georgia On March 16, 2018, at the resort of Gudauri, Georgia, a rare incident occurred when the cable car system suddenly changed direction and moved very quickly in the opposite direction, causing dozens of people to be thrown down. land. Witnesses at the scene said the cable car system was badly out of control. Many people were thrown from a great height and other tourists were forced to jump out of their cabins to avoid being hit by a cable post at the foot of the mountain. Ten people were reported in serious condition on arrival at the hospital. According to the resort’s representative, technical problems were the main cause of the accident. It is known that this is also the case that was turned into fake news, that the cable car broke in Japan, causing many deaths, including 12 Vietnamese.

The cable car at the famous attraction Sea to Sky Gondola, British Columbia province, western Canada, crashed into the canyon at 4am on August 10, 2019, after the cable part was cut, causing almost the entire 30 cabins of the system were severely damaged. Campers in the area said they heard loud bangs and metal at the time of the incident. Fortunately, because the cable car was not operational at the time of the incident, no tourists were injured. According to the investigation, the local police said this was a deliberate act of sabotage with a human element. The general director of Sea to Sky Gondola estimated the company lost more than 1 million USD, not including the lost revenue due to the closure. Some cable car disasters in history The Eniwetok rig is hooked up to a cable car in Singapore. Photo: StraitsTimes. Before the 21st century, there were also some bad cable car accidents in the world. On January 29, 1983, a train carrying a Panamanian oil rig got caught in the cable car system in Singapore, between Jardine Steps and Sentosa stations. As a result, two cabins fell into the sea at a depth of 55m, killing seven people. On July 1, 1999, a cable car carrying staff, janitors and maintenance engineers to the international astronomical observatory in St-Etienne-en-Dévoluy, France, suddenly broke and fell down. a valley. All 20 people present on the cable car died. The scene of the cable car break at the astronomical observatory St-Etienne-en-Dévoluy, France. Photo: UON.

Ashby cut a ski lift in the Cavalese, Dolomites, killing 20 people. Specifically, this jet flew at a speed of ~870km / h at low altitude, despite warnings from the Pentagon, that the plane must be kept above 305m above the ground in that area. Also in Cavalese, Italy, on March 9, 1976, a cable car cabin in this area fell down a mountainside from a height of 200m and then was thrown another 300m before stopping at the foot of the mountain. 43 people were killed, including 15 children aged 7-15 and an 18-year-old employee. The only survivor was a 14-year-old student. Cavalese police said two cables were crossed and the other was broken. The automatic safety system was able to prevent disaster when the fault was detected, but was turned off when the incident occurred. The four officials involved had to be “reported” for accusations of irresponsibility and a number of other crimes.

At least 14 people were killed and one child was seriously injured in a horrific accident in the mountains of northern Italy on May 23, 2021. Photo: ANSA The above cable car route reopened last month after the blockade due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The cabin that crashed on May 23, supposedly carrying 15 people to the top of the Stresa-Mottarone cable line, crashed halfway up the mountain at an altitude of 300 meters while the top of the cable was nearly 1,500 meters above sea level. This is a cable car that serves tourists from the town of Stresa in the Piedmont region to the top of Mount Mottarone, where visitors can enjoy spectacular views of the Alps. Rescuers said two injured children, one 5 years old, one 9 years old, were immediately transferred to a children’s hospital in Turin for treatment, but one child did not survive. The cable car cabin fell and rolled many times on the mountainside. Photo: AFP/ANSA Stress Mayor Marcella Severino said the cable car cabin fell about 20 meters above the ground and rolled several times over the slope before becoming stuck in the branches. Ms Severino added that climbers said they heard a loud hiss shortly before the crash. The National Rescue Service said they received a call shortly after 12 noon (local time) and the cable car was later found “crumbling” in the forest. The accident is believed to have been caused by one of the cables breaking, potentially raising questions about the quality of Italy’s transport infrastructure. Investigators on the same day began identifying the victims, including foreign nationals.

Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi offered condolences to the families of the victims, while Transport Minister Enrico Giovannini described the incident as a “terrible tragedy”. On the same day, May 23, European Council President Charles Michel also offered condolences on Twitter, saying “Europe mourns you”, while European Parliament President David Sassoli appealed on his personal Twitter page. “We must immediately clarify the cause of this absurd tragedy”. The cable car is said to have fallen halfway up a 300 meter high mountain, while the top of the mountain is 1,500 meters high. Emergency services and police were present at the scene of the tragedy.

This is one of the deadliest accidents in Chinese sports history. The incident caused public outrage because of the poor management of the Baiyin city government. Rescuers had to walk up the mountainside to search for victims. Photo: Xinhua News Agency. Terrible moment The athletes departed on the morning of May 22 from the Yellow River Stone Forest Park, Baiyin City. This is an annual event organized by the authorities of Canh Thai district and Bach Ngan city to develop rural areas and promote healthy lifestyles. Nearly 10,000 people registered for this year’s event. Participants are divided into three categories: beginner, 21 km cross country and 100 km cross country. The bad weather occurred around 1 p.m., when the runners climbed 2,000 meters in the 20-31 km stage of the race, according to Xinhua News Agency. Participating athletes wear only shorts and t-shirts. Therefore, these people have little ability to protect the body from the low temperature of the surrounding environment. When witnessing some athletes having trouble, the organizers canceled the event and deployed rescue. At that time, some people had hypothermia. Some others passed out from being too cold. A total of 21 people were killed and 151 were rescued. In an interview with SCMP , one survivor said there was no forecast of severe weather. The cold also exacerbates the challenges of the mountainous terrain. The athletes departed on the morning of May 22. Photo: Weibo/Xinhua News Agency. This person said he still tries to run when the weather turns bad. On the way, he witnessed people fall one by one, even experienced athletes. Before the contest started, the organizers asked each person to contribute 1,600 yuan (US$248) to register. That’s when he decided to join. “Now, every time I recall that thought, I just want to slap myself,” he wrote in a social media post. He said that in one part of the competition, the contestants had to run uphill for a distance of 8 km. The road surface is covered with rocks and mud while the sky is cloudy, strong winds, heavy rain and limited visibility. “From this point on, there is only one way up, no one down. Motorcycles can’t get on that road, so there’s no food or water,” he wrote. “I was completely drenched and could barely stand. I tried to find a hiding spot and tried to warm myself up with a flimsy thermal blanket, but was immediately blown away by the wind. I saw other people’s blankets torn to pieces by the wind.” Another athlete said he couldn’t feel his fingers. “I put my fingers in my mouth to warm it up but I still can’t feel anything. Even my tongue feels frozen,” he said. “That’s when I decided to give up and run downhill because I realized it was hypothermia. It was wise and fortunate that I made that decision.” He also saw many other contestants pass out on the way down. However, he did not have the strength to help others. It is difficult to track other athletes because the GPS signal is very poor. In addition to hypothermia, some athletes also cut their hands and fall. Late regret According to the Xinhua News Agency , rescue efforts were hampered by high altitude and bad weather. Among the dead were Luong Tinh and Hoang Quan Quan. These are two of China’s top long-distance runners. Luong Tinh won China’s Ultra Gobi in 2018 and finished second in the Hong Kong 100 super-trail race in 2019. Meanwhile, Hoang Quan Quan is the Olympic marathon champion. Paralympic Paralympics 2019 in Dubai. Yellowstone Forest Park, where the tragedy happened. Photo: Handout. Zhang Xuchen, the chairman of Baiyin City, bowed his head to apologize to the victims’ families. “This is an unexpected incident due to the sudden change in the weather in the area. As an event organizer, we are extremely sorry and regretful. We apologize and offer our deepest condolences to the families of the victims and the injured athletes,” he said. The Gansu provincial government has set up a task force to monitor the investigation. In a comment, state broadcaster CCTV insisted extreme sports should be carefully organized to avoid such a rare and devastating tragedy. Marathons and ultra-long distance running have become popular in China in recent years, attracting participation from the country’s growing middle class. Races are held in remote areas with huge prize money to attract participants. The governments of regions in western China such as Yunnan, Gansu and Sichuan have set aside funds to organize running competitions to attract and develop tourism.

Before Covid-19 appeared, the Ganges River was once “flooded with corpses”. In 1918, when an influenza pandemic swept through India and killed an estimated 18 million people, the river’s waters filled with the smell of rotting corpses. This creepy scene is making a comeback because of a pandemic. The official death toll in India is reported to be more than 250,000, but experts say the real number is five times higher, according to Guardians. These bodies began to wash up on the banks of the sacred river, becoming a haunting symbol for the uncounted Covid-19 deaths. According to the Economist , these images also reveal the picture of Indian society with poor people struggling to cope with the pandemic and make a living. Relatives and relatives carry the body of a person who died of Covid-19 to be buried on the banks of the Ganges River. Photo: Shutterstock. No one sells firewood to cremate relatives On May 19, India continued to set a new record for the number of deaths in a day due to Covid-19: 4,529 people. This is the highest number of daily Covid-19 deaths of any country ever, surpassing the previous record in the US with 4,475 deaths in a day. To date, India has recorded more than 25 million cases and 275,000 deaths from Covid-19. However, there are no official statistics on the number of bodies discovered in the past two weeks in the open stretch of the Ganges that flows through the poor rural states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, or buried in shallow sandy graves along the riverbanks. in Uttar Pradesh. Through statistics, locals and journalists here put the number of more than 2,000 bodies. In the village of Gahmar in Uttar Pradesh, 15-year-old Raju Chaudhry, who works on a fishing boat, said he had recently seen “about 50 bodies being washed away every day, for many days”. There is no way to know if these people have Covid-19 or not, although Indian authorities have acknowledged some of the bodies as those who died from the pandemic. According to official figures released by the government, the death and infection rate of Covid-19 in Gahmar village is low. But Bhupendra Upadhyay, a priest here, said a lot of people have died in the past few weeks. Earthen vases hang from a banyan tree by the Ganges River in the village of Gahmar, each representing a person who has just died. Photo: Guardian. “I saw 30 to 35 bodies being brought into the river recently and drowned here. Many people drop dead bodies in the river because they have difficulty arranging cremation, because there are so many dead people,” he said. Upadhyay pointed to the trunk of the banyan tree where he was sitting. On the trunk, dozens of earthen pots are tied up. “Each of those vases represents a deceased person. Let’s see how many, just from the last 10 days,” he said. In the case of Shambhu Nath, his family had no difficulty in cremation, as villagers helped and attended the funeral. But after the second brother in the family died of Covid-19, they found themselves abandoned by their neighbors. “When we tried to buy firewood for our cremation, we were chased away. No one in the village could help us with the cremation because they suspected we had Covid-19. We couldn’t get the wood and didn’t know what else to do. , so we had to drown his body in the river. We did it at 11am the next morning, and only a close family came to offer condolences,” he said. What do corpses in the Ganges reveal? Sheet Economist An assessment of India’s covid-19 crisis, with images of corpses floating in the Ganges, reveals two things. One is the scale of the tragedy sweeping across the vast territory of India. In remote rural areas, far from city clinics, people are not being tested for Covid-19. Therefore, no cases or deaths were recorded. The officially published death toll is now a fraction of the true number. Economist identify. The second thing that the bodies in the Ganges reveal is that this wave of Covid-19 is ravaging the lives of the poor, who are already struggling to make ends meet. The poor are losing their jobs, starving to eat and falling victim to scams. Jammu and Kashmir State Disaster Response Force soldiers carry empty coffins to transport the bodies of people who died of Covid-19 on May 19. Photo: AP. “People borrow money to pay for medicines, or oxygen tanks, or pay extra fees for ambulance drivers because they have to carry Covid-19 patients. So they can’t afford to pay for cremation or funeral. ceremony,” Utpal Pathak, a local journalist, told Economist. After the first wave of Covid-19 swept through India in 2020, many local newspapers and research institutes tried to calculate the economic impact of the pandemic on the poor. Pew Research Institute estimates that as of January 2020, only 4.3% of Indians earn less than $2. A year later, that number had increased to 9.7%, or 134 million people. In-depth research by Azim Premji University in Bangalore shows that after the 2020 nationwide lockdown, about 230 million Indians slipped below the poverty line, which is set based on the minimum wage (about $45 a month). ). The university researchers also found that during the lockdown, 90% of the poor consumed less food. Six months later, their diets still haven’t returned to normal. In the past year, the income of Indian workers, including the lucky 10% who have a salaried job, has fallen by a third, according to the report. Economist. Shocked by the terrible impact of the pandemic and the blockade order in 2020, this year, the central government of India let the state and local governments to impose the blockade order on their own based on the actual situation. “Although the economy has not yet come to a complete standstill, the scale of this outbreak still leaves many families devastated.” Economist write. A worker helps cremate a body on the banks of the Ganges River. Photo: Getty. For many people, the biggest shock is the loss of family breadwinners. The Indian railway company has 1.2 million employees, but Covid-19 killed 1,952 employees here. In April, the state of Uttar Pradesh dispatched 1.2 million civil servants to work on local elections and counting votes. Report of Economist said this election was the cause of the large-scale outbreak. It is estimated that about 2,000 of the aforementioned civil servants died afterward, including 800 teachers. Each of those deaths cost their families weeks of grief and expensive treatment. Not to mention each person who died could have infected and made 20 others seriously ill. “In a normal year, one in 20 families is pushed into poverty due to high medical costs. What has happened in the last two months is understandable. Millions of wonderful Indian families Hope was forced to sell gold, pawn or borrow money. Economist write. In times of poverty, people are vulnerable to a variety of scams, such as healthcare workers demanding bribes to secure hospital admissions, purchasing counterfeit drugs, or even in some states, painted scams. on fire extinguishers to sell as oxygen tanks. Health Minister Harsh Vardhan, who has been promoting an herbal “cure” for Covid-19, last week advised Indians to eat more dark chocolate with “more than 70% cocoa” to beat the stress of the pandemic. . Bringing the ashes of unclaimed Covid-19 victims to the Ganges River Indian volunteers collect ashes from crematoriums to organize funerals for Covid-19 victims in Haridwar city.

Cryogenic technology and the promise of bringing the dead back to life (Photo: Internet) Cryogenics, also known as cryopreservation, is the technique of freezing a dead body or body parts to protect them from decomposition. Proponents of cryogenics see it as a magical technology to bypass death and even reach immortality. They decided to freeze and preserve the body intact, hoping to wait until science developed enough to revive the dead body and cure whatever caused them to die before. . (Photo: Internet) To date, more than 350 dead people worldwide have been preserved at low temperatures at one of four facilities providing this service: two in the US (Alcor Life Extension Foundation, Arizona and Cryonics Institute, Michigan State); 1 in Russia (KrioRus company), and 1 in Portugal (also Alcor lab). About 1,000 people have signed up for the post-mortem resurrection service. In this list, there are famous figures such as Britney Spears, Simon Cowell, Larry King, Don Laughlin (a gambling business magnate in the US) or director Charles Matthau… How are cryogenics performed? Legally, deep freezing is only performed when the patient is dead. The ideal time to start a cryogenics procedure is about 2 minutes after the patient’s heart stops and no more than 15 minutes afterward. First, the body is gradually cooled with ice and injected with chemicals to reduce clotting. After the temperature drops to near 0°C, blood is drawn to be replaced with a solution intended to protect tissues and organs. (Photo: Internet) The technicians also injected the body with another solution to prevent ice crystals from forming, then continued to cool the body down to -130°C. As a final step, the body is moved to a container of liquid nitrogen. There, it will be cooled down to -196°C. Cost of cryogenics The fee that a person has to pay if they want to deep freeze the whole body at the Cryonics Institute is from about 35,000 USD (about 800 million VND). While if you do the procedure at KrioRus in Russia, it will cost you 37,600 USD (about 860 million VND). At Alcor, the cost of preserving a person is 220,000 USD (equivalent to 5 billion VND), if you want to save more, just preserve the brain for about 80,000 USD (approximately 1.8 billion VND). This cost does not include the annual maintenance fee, which means that the longer you keep it, the more money you have to spend. (Photo: Internet) chances of success Many scientists believe that the chance to revive a dead person is almost zero. Because the body’s organs, especially vital organs such as the heart, lungs, brain, and kidneys, must have been damaged when freeze. Until now, the damage that has occurred and resulted in death is irreversible. Due to the severe damage to internal organs and the brain, the law requires technical participants to be scientifically dead, which makes it almost impossible to revive a dead person. (Photo: Internet) Alcor doesn’t offer a clear technique to resurrect someone who’s been dead too long, or a technique under development in the future to bring the dead back to life. A very vague technology on Alcor’s website is described that they will use molecular nanotechnology with microscopic nano-sized robots that can replace damaged chromosomes and can restore individual cells. . It is worth mentioning that Alcor has not researched this technology, in fact they only trade in freezing and preserving the dead and no one is responsible for the patient’s promise to revive. Alcor’s main research is only on techniques to preserve the dead as best as possible. The prospect of resurrecting a frozen body has so far been quite remote and unrealistic. And many in the scientific community even consider this to be unethical.

To date, India has recorded more than 25 million cases and 275,000 deaths from Covid-19. However, many experts say the real number could be many times higher. On the riverbanks, many cremation pylons burned around the clock, many cremation sites had no space left. This phenomenon partly reflects the unprecedented number of deaths and has not been updated in official data. According to the BBC , behind the bodies floating in the river is a story of customs, poverty and a deadly pandemic. Many cremation pylons burn around the clock in India. Photo: Getty. Frighten The horrifying story in the state of Uttar Pradesh first came to light on May 10. The opening was the event of 71 bodies washed up on the riverbank in the village of Chausa in Bihar. Officials said some of the remains may have been leftover body parts that fell into the Ganges after cremations, but they suspect the bodies were dumped in the river. The police put a net across the water to prevent the same thing from happening. A day later, about 10 kilometers from Chausa, dogs and crows were seen swarming with dozens of decomposing bodies on the banks of a river in the village of Gahmar, in the Pradesh Ghazipur region of Uttar state. Locals said the body had been washed up on the embankment for several days. However, the authorities ignored their complaints about the stench until news of the corpses found downstream of Bihar made the news. Dozens of bodies swell and decompose, floating in the river. They were discovered by people when they went for a morning dip in India’s holiest river. Sheet Hindustan Police reported that 62 bodies had been recovered. Meanwhile, in Kannauj, Kanpur, Unnao and Prayagraj, the riverbanks are dotted with shallow graves. Shallow graves by the Ganges River. Photo: Getty. Videos sent to BBC from the banks of the Mehndi ghat in Kannauj shows a series of mounds in the shape of human corpses. Each of these mounds contained a body. At the nearby Mahadevi ghat, at least 50 bodies were found. Crematorium is overloaded Traditionally, Hindus will cremate the dead. However, many communities have a practice known as “Jal Pravah” – the practice of floating the bodies of children, unmarried women, or those who have died of an infectious disease or been bitten by a snake. Many poor people do not have money to cremate their loved ones, so they also wrap their bodies in white cotton cloth and drop them into the water. Sometimes bodies are tied to rocks to ensure they will sink to the bottom of the river, but many bodies are floated without the stones tied. In the time before the pandemic, corpses floating in the Ganges were not an uncommon sight. However, the number of bodies in the river is too much in recent times, still surprising many people. A journalist in Kanpur said the number of bodies in the river was proof of the “big disparity between the official death toll and the actual death toll related to Covid-19” in India. He said that from April 16 to May 5, the official reported number was 196 deaths in Kanpur, but data from seven crematoriums showed there were nearly 8,000 cremations. “All electric crematoriums are open 24/7 in April. Even so, there are still not enough furnaces to cremate bodies, so the government has allowed the use of wood on the outside grounds for cremation,” he said. to speak. “However, crematoriums only accept confirmed Covid-19 bodies from the hospital, while a very large number of people who died at home have not been tested. Families of the dead bring the bodies of their loved ones out. on the outskirts of the city or to neighboring districts like Unnao. When they can’t find wood or a place to cremate, they drop the bodies on the riverbed.” Cremation platforms along the riverside. Photo: Getty. Another journalist in Prayagraj also believes that many of the bodies in the river are those of Covid-19 patients who died at home without being tested, or poor people who can’t afford cremation. “It’s heartbreaking,” he said. “These people are someone’s son, daughter, brother, sister, father or mother. They deserve to be respected when they die. But their deaths are not even recorded – no one knows they died or is known. How to be buried? Burial from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m The discovery of graves and decomposing bodies, along with fears that the bodies could have contracted Covid-19 have sparked panic in villages along the river. Originating in the Himalayas, the Ganges is one of the largest rivers in the world. Hindus consider this river a sacred river, they believe that bathing in the Ganges will wash away sins and use this river water for religious ceremonies. In Kannauj, Jagmohan Tiwari, a 63-year-old resident, reported seeing “150-200 shallow graves” by the river. “The burial took place from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.,” he said. The discovery of the graves caused panic in the area. People worry that bodies buried on the ground will start to float in the river when it rains and the water level rises. On May 12, the state government banned the practice of “Jal Pravah” and provided support for poor families who could not afford cremation. Relatives of a victim stand near the riverbank while the body is cremated. Photo: Getty. In many places, the police used sticks to retrieve the body from the river and called on the boatman to bring the body to the shore. After being retrieved, the decomposed bodies are buried in pits or burned on a cremation pyre. Ghazipur district judge Mangala Prasad Singh said teams had been set up, patrolling the riverbanks and cremation grounds to prevent people from dumping bodies in rivers or burying them on the banks.

Even more sad is that those endless tragedies still have no end. These stories will appear more and more, as the Covid-19 pandemic begins to spread from big cities to rural India, where the health system is much worse than the urban areas. The picture is full of contrasts The Indian capital New Delhi recorded nearly 12,500 new Covid-19 cases on May 12 – just half of the number recorded here on April 30. Another somewhat positive sign is that the positive rate of tests has dropped to 19%, from a peak of 36% a few weeks earlier. A farmers market in Mumbai on May 11. Photo: Reuters. A similar positive situation is recorded in Mumbai – India’s most populous city. The positive rate of the test here dropped to 7%, below the 10% recommended by WHO. That partly shows that the two largest cities of India are gradually controlling the epidemic. However, if looking at the whole picture, the picture of the Covid-19 pandemic does not seem to have too many bright spots. Dark spots are appearing more and more, especially in rural India. This leads to a conundrum: If New Delhi, which has good health infrastructure and many good hospitals, struggles to contain the pandemic, how can rural areas where the system much weaker health care – can withstand the wave of epidemics. And the answer came pretty quickly. When the source of oxygen is exhausted On May 11, Sri Venkateswara Ramnarain Ruia Hospital in Andhra Pradesh state ran out of oxygen supply, while more than 60 patients were in critical condition. 11 patients later died. In anger, relatives of these people stormed into the intensive care unit, knocking over tables and chairs and smashing equipment. Television images showed several people clutching their heads in grief, while doctors and nurses fled for fear of assault. A Covid-19 patient is being cared for at a public hospital in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Photo: Reuters. Andhra Pradesh, like many other southern states, is facing severe oxygen shortages. Statistics of an Indian newspaper show that oxygen depletion has taken place in 20 hospitals, leading to the deaths of more than 200 patients. In the past, the southern states of India have agreed to share oxygen with each other. Now, some states want to end the cooperation. The southern state of Tamil Nadu refused to share oxygen with the neighboring state of Andhra Pradesh, where the tragedy took place that left 11 people dead. The state of Kerala also refused to share oxygen because of the state’s high demand for oxygen, as the test positive rate in the state increased to 27% from 8% in early April. “Many people have died without treatment,” commented Rijo M. John, a health economist in Kerala. Behind the bodies in the river People in Bihar, a northern Indian state, could not help but be shocked when they discovered dozens of bodies, suspected of being Covid-19 victims, washed up on the banks of the Ganges River on May 10. “I have never seen so many corpses,” said Arun Kumar Srivastava, a local doctor. He also said that “there will certainly be more deaths”, as many people carry bodies on their shoulders. A family member of a Covid-19 patient is grieving after hearing the news of a loved one’s death. Photo: Reuters. Officials said the bodies were dropped by ambulance drivers from a bridge, and denied that the bodies were floated by relatives due to lack of burial conditions. Krishna Dutt Mishra, an ambulance driver in Bihar, said that many people had to drop the bodies of loved ones in the river because the cremation price was too high. According to him, during the second Covid-19 wave, the price of cremation has increased from 2,000 rupees (about 27 USD) to 15,000 rupees (200 USD). This is a huge sum of money for many Indian families, and as a result, cremating a loved one becomes an impossibility for them. “I drove all the way from Buxar to Chausa. I’ve never seen dead bodies in the river, let alone seen dozens, or hundreds of bodies,” Mr. Mishra said.

The banks of the Ganges River in the city of Garhmukteshwar, Uttar Pradesh state (India’s most populous state) became a place to cremate the bodies of people who died of COVID-19. Photo: AFP/GETTY IMAGES The epidemic is spreading rapidly to the countryside After four consecutive days of recording the number of infections above 400,000 / day, the last two days the number of daily infections in India has fallen below this level. Many government health officials and experts predict this second wave of epidemics in India will peak around the end of this week. However, it seems that the epidemic crisis in India is moving to a more dangerous new phase. The danger is that the virus is now spreading rapidly to rural areas, according to the CIDRAP Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota. In the article in the newspaper New York Times Journalist Jeffrey Gettleman, head of this newspaper’s office in the capital New Delhi, also said that the infection and death from COVID-19 that broke out in big cities a few weeks ago is now spreading very quickly to rural areas. village. New Delhi recorded nearly 12,500 infections on May 11, less than half of the number recorded on April 30. Hospitals in New Delhi are now accepting patients again, after having to stop accepting them because of overcrowding last month, leaving infected people to die on the streets. Mumbai also recorded the same. The danger is that the number of infections in New Delhi and Mumbai will probably stop increasing and decrease gradually, but in many other places will increase. In other words, the situation of New Delhi a few weeks ago now extends to almost the entire country. Some of the worst-affected states are in the south, especially Karnataka. I cannot imagine what would happen in rural India. Expert RIJO M. JOHN worried about the prospect of the COVID-19 epidemic overflowing into the countryside How will it be? This fact raises a terrifying question: If New Delhi, a rich metropolis with dozens of hospitals, is unable to handle the current wave of high cases, what will happen once this wave spreads to the country? poor rural areas? The answer seems to be gradually becoming clear. On the evening of May 10, a leading hospital in the southern state of Andhra Pradesh ran out of medical oxygen. More than 60 critically ill patients wear breathing tubes but no oxygen. The doctors worked frantically, but 11 patients did not survive that night. In a distraught over the loss of a loved one, family members stormed into the hospital and smashed it. Doctors and nurses had to flee until the police arrived. It can be clearly seen that the hospital overload, lack of oxygen, medicine … very serious even in large urban areas will be more alarming in rural states, according to the radio. CNN . Chogath farming village in the western state of Gujarat has a population of 7,400, but there are 500-600 infections, the number of people who have not survived is very high because the whole village does not have a doctor. Nearby towns have several medical centers, but these small facilities have run out of beds and medical facilities. Dinesh Makwana drove his father, who was severely infected with COVID-19, through four medical centers in neighboring towns, but had to return home, because these centers had run out of beds. Usually about 30 people die in this village every year, but in the past month alone, villagers have had to cremate 90 bodies, according to Mr. Girjashankar. Many families have lost a lot of loved ones to COVID-19. Girjashankar, 70, still volunteered to go up the hill to cut firewood to help cremate the dead. Many southern states such as Kerala and Tamil Nadu have made it clear that they will not share the medical oxygen they have with each other, having to keep it to serve hospitals that are overloaded because the number of patients is growing too fast in their states. Medical aid goods from other countries have started pouring into India since the end of April, but it is still not enough compared to the reality of the shortage in this country. Currently, in addition to urban areas suffering from severe epidemics, Prime Minister Narenda Modi’s government also spends some oxygen and medicine to urgently distribute to the states. However, with this little common ground, remote and isolated localities such as Chogath village (Gujarat state) still have to rely on their own strength.• Drop the body Ganges River because there is no money for cremation Newspaper Indian Express On May 10, Indians discovered more than 40 bodies washed up on the banks of the Ganges River near Bihar and Uttar Pradesh states in the north. Some news channels say that the number of bodies floating in the Ganges must be in the hundreds. In India, there is a custom that when a family member dies, the relatives will tie a stone to the body and drop it into the Ganges River – a sacred river for Hindus. However, many officials and locals believe that these bodies are those who died from COVID-19. Many bodies were partially burned and locals explained that the bodies were not cremated or cremated incompletely due to a severe shortage of firewood. Another reason families choose to drop their loved ones’ bodies in the river is because they can’t stand the cost of cremation, many health workers told the newspaper. New York Times . Bihar and Uttar Pradesh are two of India’s poorest states and are home to about 370 million people. Doctors warn people not to use cow dung on their bodies in the belief that it will help their immune systems deal with the virus or help them recover faster if they get sick. Hindus believe cows are a symbol of life and cow dung or cow urine is therapeutic. However, according to doctors, not only is there no scientific evidence that this can defeat COVID-19 but can also bring many other disease risks.

A baby decorated with flowers when taking pictures. Although it has faded as digital has evolved, photographing the dead was once a huge business, a means of denouncing war crimes. The origin of the trend Currently, cameras are available on mobile devices so people can store images anytime, anywhere. However in the Victorian period, cameras were not so popular and convenient. Taking personal photos is also very expensive, so many people do not have any pictures while living. Until their death, relatives have spent a large amount of money on a photo to keep memories. Especially for families with the death of a child, it becomes more spiritual to take pictures. Early photos were often blurred, but not because of the technology of the camera at the time. Victorian cameras were capable of producing sharp images but the technology was very slow. Usually, the person being photographed must sit still for at least 20 seconds, no blinking or moving limbs. Even breathing can affect image sharpness. People are under pressure to sit or stand upright in clothes that are flat. Photographing the living person at that time was extremely difficult. On the contrary, it is easier to take pictures of the dead because they do not move or breathe or ruin the photo. Amateurs looking to improve their skills and create sharp images often find dead guests. Many people have saved a few photos while living, but because the quality of photos of dead people is usually better than those of living people, families still take pictures of them after death. This photo can show sharp details and features about the deceased. When corpses take pictures with loved ones, they also become “in focus” with sharp images while the people around them may be a little blurred. Nowadays, it seems crazy to spend large sums of money to take photos of the dead. But because today, or at least in the West, death is hidden, no longer lurking around. Modern people enjoy life to the fullest and often avoid thinking about or mentioning death. Death has become a foreign thing, a horror to them. But research from the University of North Carolina, USA, shows that during the Victorian period, human life expectancy was low while mortality was high. People have to constantly watch their relatives and friends pass away. In particular, it is common for children to die when they are young. From childhood, people have become acquainted and understood about death. The art of photographing the deceased Not only taking photos, but people want the pictures of the dead to come true and vivid as if they were just taking a nap. Death is often associated with mourning, but if you look at the Victorian photographs, the reality is the opposite. Photos of the deceased are quite beautiful. Many pictures are arranged or arranged purposefully. When photographing the dead became a major business during the Victorian era, trade magazines such as Philadelphia Photographer offered advice to “assist the amateurs in creating impressive photographs of the dead”. They suggested placing the corpse near a window to take advantage of natural light. Even so, sunlight cannot bring a corpse to life. Therefore, photographers have created many ways to make shooting the dead look more natural. After the photo was printed, they used color to paint the eyes wide to help the dead look soulful. Let the dead sit upright, loved ones can take pictures with and support their backs. Normally, it takes about three people to hold the arm, lift the dead person’s head, and some people use a support to help the dead stand upright. Families also often decorate teddy bears and toys around children to create a joyful, warm space, and comfort the little souls … However, more and more people photographing was transformed and commercialized. Celebrities died have become “prey” to the wings of photographers. They secretly attend funerals to take photos of celebrities to sell to newspapers or card printing companies in exchange for large sums of money. Many people, because of their idols or curiosity, have spent money to buy these pictures. For example, the photo of a French writer, Victor Hugo, who died looking like he was sleeping, was printed in large numbers on postcards. Soldiers died in the American Civil War. Exposure to war crimes Photographing the dead isn’t just limited to the home. When photography became popular, the American civil war broke out. Photographers have another task is to take pictures of the battlefield. In it, it is indispensable to take photos of the generals and soldiers who died in different poses, but all in all are bloody, haunting moments. War is a strange thing for people living in a peaceful area, but photography has brought war closer to everyone. The sacrifices of the soldiers denounce the cruelty and the heavy damage that war brings. War photos are displayed at photo galleries, published in newspapers or as souvenirs. They have had a strong impact on people’s awareness of war crimes, and spurred movements to restore peace. The trend disappeared In the early 20th century, photographing the dead was no longer popular because of changes in society. Thanks to the development of health care, the infant and population mortality rate has sharply decreased. From the 1900s, whether old or young, when sick, they are admitted to the hospital and may die in them without relatives. This means death takes place behind closed doors, rather than in the comfortable and open spaces of the house. Furthermore, photography has become more popular. Everyone can take pictures many times by themselves, without the need for a photographer, it is no longer feasible to take a “single and last” photo. However, photographing of the dead still exists, but for more privacy or for special purposes. In the present era, it will not be easy to see pictures of the deceased even though this trend has flourished many decades ago.

“We were at the door and wanted to go out, but the police blocked the door. Therefore, no one can go to pharmacy, ”said this person. “In a panic, we fell into each other. I thought I would be trampled to death. “I saw the dead right next to me,” he recalls. “I feel like I’m going to die” A man named David said to him Ynet that the stomping happened when people came to see the fire. “Suddenly a wave of people came. We were swept away. Some people were thrown into the sky, others were crushed on the ground, ”he described. “There was a baby trying to hold onto my leg for life. We waited for our rescue within 15-20 minutes amidst this insane crowd. It was terrible, ”he recalls. Aid workers tried to remove the injured from the scene. Photo: Reuters. “Time seems endless, around us are paralyzed dead,” another witness said Ynet . He was dragged out of the crowd by the police to avoid suffocating. “Some people were on me. I was on someone who couldn’t breathe anymore. Surrounded with screams, I could see the children below me. At that time, I just thought of not wanting my children to die. orphan, “another witness shared with Israeli media. A 24-year-old witness named Dvir recounts that a bunch of people have been cornered. The first row collapsed under the pressure of the crowd, then the second row, where he was standing. “I felt like I was going to die,” he said. The disaster caused rescuers to struggle to disperse the crowd and rescue victims from the scene. “We are holding about 30 children and cannot reach their parents,” said a relief worker Channel 12 . “I’ve never seen anything like this. We are not sure what happened, but the consequences are unimaginable, ”he said. “We think there is a warning about a suspicious package of bombs,” a pilgrim named Yizhak told. Channel 12 . Meanwhile, follow New York Times, It seems that the trampling happened when some people slipped over the stone steps leading into a narrow, steep, metal floor. Ynet describes this as a “waterfall stream”. A witness named Chaim Vertheimer said the ramp was slippery due to water, including fruit juice being spilled onto the floor. “Everyone stopped, but many people continued to come. I remember hundreds of people exclaiming: I can’t breathe, ”she said Ynet. The festival turns into a tragedy From the night of April 29, about 100,000 radical Orthodox Jews gathered in Mount Meron, northern Israel to hold a traditional religious festival. Around 1 am on April 30 (local time), disaster happened. Thousands of people stepped on each other, killing 44 people and injuring hundreds. There is currently no official conclusion on the cause of the case. Extreme orthodox Jews celebrate the Lag b’Omer festival on the 18th day of the month of Iyar on the Jewish calendar. Pilgrims set fire to fire and dance around the tomb of a second-century rabbi to commemorate the clergy’s death. This year, the festival is still held, although Israeli health officials warn of the danger of this event becoming a reservoir of Covid-19 infection. Bodies of the victims were removed from the scene. Photo: Times of Israel. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called it “a terrible catastrophe”. He came to the scene to directly direct the rescue work. The leader also declared 1/5 as a national mourning day for victims of the disaster. Some of the pilgrims present at the scene questioned and chanted slogans against him, according Times of Israel . The area around the scene is divided into several small areas for crowd control. The disaster has raised many questions about weakness, even negligence in planning. The recorded videos show police trying to block people who want to escape from the scene. They may not be aware of the severity of the situation and wish the chaotic crowd did not spread to other areas. Some images also show a locked door in the emergency exit. Eli Levy, spokesman for Israeli police, said investigations were underway, but it was too early to blame or indictment of negligence. He also said that many of the pilgrims refused to leave despite the calls to evacuate. For the survivors, they were unable to understand what happened. “Nobody imagined it could happen. The glee turned into mourning. The bright light turned into a deep night,” the witness named Yitzhak told him. Channel 12. Deadly trampling at Israel’s largest religious festival At least 38 people were killed, 103 were injured in the trampling at Israel’s largest religious festival. Tens of thousands of people joined the event, despite the warnings.

From England, more than 8,000 km away from home and 5 time zones, Anuja Vakil struggled for 12 days to manage and care for his father who was in critical condition. Mr. Jatin Bhagat is fighting Covid-19 at a hospital in Ahmedabad, Gujarat state, in western India. Ms. Vakil felt that her father was very lucky because he was finally hospitalized for treatment. The number of new infections and deaths caused by Covid-19 in India has increased continuously, making the overseas Indian community extremely concerned about their loved ones. Photo: Reuters. Before that, Vakil had to call everywhere to find a bed for special care for his father. Followed by the defiant costs, only hoping to get the therapeutic injection. Finally there were countless hours of phone calls with doctors, family and friends to resolve procedural issues. “I pray for my father every day,” Ms. Vakil said. The helplessness is halfway around the world India is currently in the serious Covid-19 crisis, the number of new infections daily for nearly two weeks has been continuously over 300,000, even up to 400,000 today. This number is expected to continue to increase, along with the common pain and anxiety of the Indian community around the world. According to UN figures in 2020, about 17 million Indians are far from home, and millions more have relatives in India. Accordingly, overseas Indians are considered the largest overseas community in the world. In the latest census in America, the country has about 4.8 million people of Indian descent. From afar, they watched in horror as their homeland was devastated by disease every day, heavier than any other country since the attack of Covid-19. For many people, their pain is accompanied by the greatest fear of their hearts: being unable to be around, not being able to help loved ones in times of need most. Anuja Vakil, who lives in England, has had to scurry to take care of her critical father a hospital bed in her hometown in India. Photo: New York Times. Indians all over the world are working diligently to find ways to help sick loved ones back home. Many people and organizations even collect money to buy oxygen generators, connect those who need care with their doctors, and use social media to share resources. Aid from the overseas Indian community is starting to arrive in India, with government aid from the UK, the US, Germany, Australia, among other countries. However, the return to relatives is very difficult. Ms. Vakil tries to focus on these positives. She said the Indians in her neighborhood in London were very enthusiastic to help. Some of her friends in New York also had relatives sick. She and they both try to revive the spirit of the family by daily video calling. Father Vakil couldn’t speak because he had to breathe, but he always nodded in response when she spoke. She could see the small wrinkles in the corners of his eyes every time she tried to make him laugh. Though he wanted to go home to take care of his father directly instead of talking on the screen, Vakil seemed unable to. “My sister told me to go home, but she didn’t understand it was very difficult,” Vakil said. The Indian community lives in large numbers in Southall, England. Photo: New York Times. India was added to Britain’s “red list” last week. This means that nearly all direct flights from the UK to India are suspended. Some people returning to the UK from India are subject to compulsory quarantine for 10 days at the expense of expensive hotels. On May 1, the US said it would begin to restrict movement to India. Travel restrictions, high costs, work obligations and the fear of getting a virus have left many people unable to return. As Covid-19 infections continued to rise, many people reported painful conversations with friends and family at home. They were helpless as they watched the horrors unfold in their homeland halfway around the world. “Every time I call back, someone dies” Jyoti Minocha, a writer and teacher living in Fairfax, Virginia, USA, is concerned about her mother and sister in New Delhi. She lost a cousin. Currently, she calls every day to find out about the situation of her relatives. “The street is as quiet as a ghost, my sister said. The only sound one can hear is the ambulance siren, ”Ms. Minocha said. “I talk to my mother almost every day,” said Ansh Sachdeva, 23, a student at the University of Bolton in northwest England. But every time I call back, I hear that someone dies, someone is infected ”. The Indian member of a Sikh church in Southall, London, provided thousands of meals a week to the community during the outbreak in England. Photo: New York Times. Sachdeva says in the New Delhi neighborhood where his family lives, not a single family is without sick people. He returned to India in November 2020 to help look after his parents and grandparents. Then they became infected. Now, I worry they will re-infect. More worryingly, travel restrictions could prevent him from returning if that happens. In January, Sachdeva’s mother also expressed concern when he returned to England. At that time, the country was experiencing the second wave of Covid-19. “For them then, the Covid-19 in India had ended.” But not! Many Indians abroad anxiously watch over their homeland as the government allows sports competitions in crowded stadiums, crowded election campaigns, and the attractive Kumbh Mela festival. millions of people participate. Following the brief joy after defeating the first wave of Covid-19, the number of infections began to increase exponentially. In England, the Indian community seems to be able to feel the pain of the people. In a residential store in Harrow – a community in northwest London inhabited by native Indians, two employees painfully recounted they had just lost loved ones last week. Harmeet Gill, 31, was born and raised in London, but had a paternal background in the northern Indian state of Punjab, also experiencing the same pain. His family is still extremely close and regularly in contact with relatives in India. “It was a double blow. We went through the Covid-19 crisis here, and we thought ‘Well, at least India is protected’. They are very anti-epidemic, ”said Gill. Harmeet Gill had a few relatives who died in his hometown because of Covid-19. Photo: New York Times. Then a little while later, bad news came. On April 26, his uncle in India passed away because of Covid-19. His aunt was hospitalized on April 29. Shortly before the second outbreak, his whole family had to return to India to mourn an uncle, the head of the family. “It is impotence. It shouldn’t have happened this way, ”he said. Gill, a volunteer at a Sikh temple in London, commented: “The terrifying scale of the pandemic shows that we have been paralyzed by it.” The temple was a center of aid during the UK’s plague, offering thousands of meals a week. Now, members at the temple are now looking for ways to help their homeland. Indian doctors living abroad also provide medical expertise and advice to dozens of friends and family members. Many people wake up early to respond to text messages asking for help, and some even call video counseling. The chaplain’s account of the funeral for 150 Covid-19 patients before cremation Every day, Hindu cleric RamKaran Mishra performs a funeral for about 150 people who have died from Covid-19 at the Ghazipur crematory facility east of New Delhi, India.

India ‘broke the game’ in the second wave of Covid-19 India is being devastated by the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. In just 24 hours, the number of deaths due to the country’s pandemic reached 2,000 people and more than 300,000 new cases. Every night, fire blazed brightly on the banks of the Ganges River. Not the flames of traditional Hindu festivals, they are the cremations of the bodies of the victims who died for Covid-19, a horrifying symbol of the unprecedented humanitarian tragedy taking place in India. Degree. From urban to rural areas, patients die in the despair of relatives, because they cannot find an empty hospital bed. The supply of oxygen and medicine was depleted, leading to countless cases of robbery of medical supplies from the hospital. At cremation facilities, crematoriums are always red for 24 hours, but countless dead bodies are still waiting in line, according to the report. Financial Times . Staff at a cremation facility in New Delhi. Photo: AFP. The epidemic wave is unprecedented The grim reality has sparked a flame of public anger over the authorities’ preparations. Just two months ago, India appeared to have successfully controlled the epidemic. However, as of April 22, India broke the world record for the number of new infections per day with 312,732 virus-positive cases. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the ruling Bharatiya Janata party allegedly put political interests above public health after holding a series of large-scale rallies, as well as allowing a Kumbh Mela festival of millions to be held. attendees in the midst of the second epidemic wave. A new strain is suspected of being behind the current wave of terrible epidemics, leading experts to fear India is on a path similar to Brazil – a country where the health system and economy have been brought down by the corona virus. down. “The health system is not well prepared for this epidemic wave. A lot of people in government across the country are not thinking of this new wave of epidemics. Some miraculously they assume we are already.” over the pandemic, “said Srinath Reddy, chairman of the Indian Community Health Foundation. Although the mortality rate is still relatively low, other indicators are pointing to a worsening crisis. Both the number of new infections and the positive rate are growing at the fastest rates in the world. The rate of infection increased from 3% last month to 16% now.

Every 5 days, the number of Covid-19 cases doubles. In many areas, the number of infected people outstrips the hospital’s ability to service. In the city of Nagpur, the proportion of patients requiring intensive care is 353 people per million people, higher than anywhere in Europe. Meanwhile, in the financial capital Mumbai, the rate is 194 patients per million population. There is a lot of evidence to suggest that many deaths from Covid-19 have not been fully counted. According to media reports in seven counties in the states of Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar, at least 1,833 bodies have been cremated with Covid-19 in recent days. However, only 228 deaths from Covid-19 have been officially recorded. In the Jamnagar district in Gujarat, 100 people died of Covid-19, but only one case has been officially reported. People died everywhere The state of Uttar Pradesh, home to 200 million people, is one of the poorest states in India. The situation in the capital Lucknow shows that India’s medical infrastructure is on the brink of collapse. Local media said that at King George’s College of Medicine alone, up to 50 patients lined up for a hospital bed. Shivi Shah is a resident of Lucknow. When her brother was positive for corona virus last week, Shah decided to send his parents to his home to avoid the worst scenario. But it was all too late, for both Shah and father. After only 3 days, her father began to lose his eyesight. 45 minutes after the emergency call, an ambulance arrived at the Shah’s house, but the car was not equipped with enough medical equipment to treat her father. The man later died on the way to the hospital. The cremation facility staff members hand-clasped the dead body of Covid-19 before placing it in the crematorium. Photo: Daily News. Unable to find a place to bury his father’s body, Shah continued to receive bad news about his mother. Her mother passed away just a few hours later in her sleep. By this time, both the Shah and his son had a fever, they were waiting for the results of the Covid-19 test. “None of us have ever seen tragedy and death like what’s happening. The situation is much worse now than last year, so many people die on the street, or die in their own homes, before. was seen by a doctor or got the test results, “said Seema Shukla, a nurse at the Sanjay Gandhi Medical Institute in Lucknow. “From early morning to midnight, my phone rang continuously. My relatives and friends desperately begged for help, they needed everything, ventilators, hospital beds, nurses, oxygen tanks, medicine. men, “said Shukla. Officials warn a new strain of strain is likely to be the cause of the current wave of epidemics, strain B.1.617 was first discovered in India in March. Scientists are doing more research on this strain, suspecting it is more contagious and resistant to vaccines. Jeffrey Barrett, an expert from the Wellcome Sanger Genetic Research Institute, said the number of cases in India gave a very dark picture, but scientists are still uncertain whether the B.1.617 strain is. is the cause or not. Up to this point, experts have mostly criticized a part of the unconscious population and the complacent, subjective attitude of the Indian government for leading to a bad spread in the second wave of epidemics. Vineeta Bal, an expert from the National Institute of Immunology in India, says the cause of the current crisis has even deeper roots. The collapse of the health system is the result of years of government neglect to public health infrastructure, Bal said. Over the years, India’s health spending has lagged far behind the world average. “The problem is not only the current government but also the public health system for the past 50 years. The situation will not be resolved in a single year of crisis. The health system has been left indifferent. very, many years, “said Mrs. Bal. Santosh Kumar, son of party leader Bharatiya Janata in Lucknow, said he was isolated at home with his family. All four members of Mr. Kumar’s family have Covid-19. “The whole system has collapsed. The rest of the government here are in quarantine. People have to find out for themselves what medicines they can take and what they can do to save themselves”, Mr. Kumar said.

Actual casualties are 2-5 times higher The second wave of Covid-19 in India quickly pushed the country into a total crisis, overloading hospitals, depleting oxygen supplies, desperate lines of people not being treated by doctors and there is evidence that the actual death toll is much higher than officially reported, according to the New York Times. Every day the Government of India records more than tens of thousands of new infections – a world record high – more new cases than any other country to date. However, experts say those numbers, no matter how staggering, represent only a small fraction of the true spread of the pandemic that puts the country in a state of emergency. Millions of people dare not even step out the door for fear of spreading the disease. Indian people mourn in front of a cremation site. Photo: NYT The sudden increase in new infections in recent weeks, with a newer variant, is raising suspicions about the actual number of deaths from India’s Covid-19 – currently reported to be 200,000. , with more than 2,000 people dying every day. Investigations from cremation facilities across the country revealed a large number of deaths from Covid-19 far exceeding the official figure. According to analysts, politicians and hospital managers can reduce this number. “It was a complete data massacre,” said Bhramar Mukherjee, an epidemiologist at the University of Michigan who has followed India closely. “From all the models we have done, we believe that the actual death toll is 2 to 5 times what is reported.” At one of the major cremation sites in Ahmedabad, a city in the state of Gujarat, western India, flames blazed through the night sky, burning 24 hours a day, like an industrial factory never. Turn off. On April 24, Indian officials reported nearly 350,000 new infections, while the number of deaths continued to increase. At a hospital in New Delhi, doctors said 20 patients in critical condition died after oxygen pressure dropped. Doctors claim that severe oxygen scarcity is the cause of the soaring death toll. In Bhopal, a large city in central India, where the disaster of gas leaks in the 1980s caused thousands of deaths, residents said this was the “busiest” time in cremation zones. since that disaster. Over the course of 13 days in mid-April, Bhopal officials reported 41 deaths related to Covid-19. But a survey by the New York Times found the number of deaths at the same time to more than 1,000. A similar phenomenon took place in Lucknow and Mirzapur – major cities in the state of Uttar Pradesh – and across Gujarat, during the same time period, authorities reported between 73 and 121 Covid-related deaths. -19 per day. But detailed figures compiled by one of Gujarat’s leading newspapers – Sandesh – indicate that the number is many times higher, around 610 people per day. What’s happening in India? Months ago, India appeared to have effective epidemic control. After the stern blockade orders that prevented the first outbreak from being eased, India no longer recorded a large number of cases. Officials and citizens have begun to be subjective and act as if the worst days are over. Now, countless Indians have been forced to go to social media to send an emergency (SOS) calling to give them bed, medicine or “some oxygen to breathe”. At the same time, India’s Covid-19 vaccine campaign is also facing difficulties. Less than 10% of Indians have received the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, even though the country is the world’s leading producer of the vaccine. Severe Indian needs have had a ripple effect around the world, especially in poorer countries. The country had planned to export millions of doses of vaccine but so far this has stopped completely due to severe shortage of vaccines in the country. This also affects when some countries have to divert imports from other countries Doctors are concerned, this terrible wave originated from the emergence of a virus variant “double mutation” – B.1.617. This variant contains genetic mutations found in two other uncontrolled versions of the SARS-CoV2 virus. One of the mutations included in the highly contagious variant was the cause of California (USA) struggles earlier this year. The other mutation is similar to the one found in South Africa and is thought to make the virus more resistant to the vaccine. However, scientists warn that it is too early to know for certain how dangerous the new variant emerging in India is. The results can be worst when combined with the ability to spread faster and more difficult to control. This is worrying scientists across the globe as high-rate vaccinated countries are easing and starting to be subjective. Because of the failures in India, Brazil and elsewhere that there is a risk that the virus could mutate to “beat” existing vaccines.

Thanh Hoa provincial police then decided to prosecute the case to investigate and clarify the cause of the particularly serious accident mentioned above.

“We have to race against time, work at 100% capacity to cremate bodies in time,” said Kamlesh Sailor, president of the organization that operates a cremation facility in Surat City, Gujarat state. Data from cremation facilities, media to the government show that the number of people buried or cremated by major cities is much greater than the number of Covid-19 deaths recorded by the authorities. official health announcement, according to Reuters . The difference in the number of deaths Reliable data is central to every nation’s anti-pandemic efforts, experts say. Without reliable data, such as vaccine preparation and medical essentials supply are extremely difficult. On April 19, India recorded 273,810 new infections, along with 1,619 deaths. The total number of Covid-19 cases in India is now more than 15 million, ranking second only to the United States. But it is more likely that the above statistic is much lower than what is actually happening. The bodies are cremated according to Covid-19 defense regulations in India. Photo: Sentinel. Indian authorities say the discrepancy in death data could be caused by a variety of reasons. Many corpses are cremated according to the Covid-19 prevention “even if there is only a 0.1% chance that the person is positive for the virus,” said a health official. “There are many cases where patients are hospitalized in a very critical condition and die before being tested. There are cases where patients died prior to admission, we don’t know if they have Covid-19 or not”, the official said to be anonymous. There are many areas in India where reliable data cannot be collected, said Bhramar Mukherjee, professor of epidemiology and biostatistics at the University of Michigan. “Things are messed up, I feel like no one understood the situation,” Mr. Mukherjee said. Surat is the second largest city in the state of Gujarat. At the cremation facilities Kurukshetra and Umra, more than 100 bodies are cremated every day according to Covid-19 regulations. This figure is four times higher than the official statistics of the number of people dying from Covid-19. Prashant Kabrawala, representative of the Narayan Trust, which runs the Ashwinikumar cremation facility, refused to provide the number of bodies cremated under anti-epidemic regulations. However, he says the number of cremations has tripled in recent weeks. “I’ve never seen so many cremated bodies over the years,” Kabrawala said. An Indian government spokesman in Gujarat declined to comment ahead of the difference in the number of deaths and cremations associated with the epidemic. India is not the only country where corona virus statistics have been questioned. But scientific literature and cremation staff testimony show that the disparity in officially reported deaths in India is much higher than in other countries. Professor Mukherjee’s study against the first wave of epidemics in India showed that the number of viral infections is 11 times more than officially reported, which is similar to research in other countries. However, the difference in officially reported deaths ranges from 2-5 times, much higher than the global average. The incinerator burned non-stop In Lucknow, the state capital of Uttar Pradesh, data from the largest cremation facility called Baikunthdham, which only processed the bodies of Covid-19 patients, showed that the number of bodies brought in was twice as high. The death of corona virus is reported by the government. That’s not to mention data from other cremation facilities, or cases of the Muslim customary burial – the community that makes up a quarter of Lucknow’s population. Azad, the Baikunthdham facility manager, said the number of bodies cremated under anti-epidemic regulations has increased fivefold in recent weeks. “We work day and night. The furnace is burning red continuously, but many bodies still have to line up,” Azad said. The state government of Uttar Pradesh declined to respond to a request for comment on Covid-19 death data. Cremations many times greater than the number of Covid-19 deaths have also been reported in many other parts of India. Cremation facility staff in New Delhi are exhausted from a work shift. Photo: QZ. In Bhopal, the state capital of Madhya Pradesh, it was recorded during 4 days of April that 187 bodies had been cremated according to anti-epidemic regulations. However, the number of corona virus deaths officially announced by the authorities is only 5. Last week, the sheet Sandesh 63 bodies were reported to a hospital for Covid-19 patients only in the city of Ahmedabad. However, that same day, the city authorities only counted 20 people died from the corona virus. Medical Journal Lancet says less than 25% of all deaths in India are confirmed medically, meaning that the exact number of deaths from Covid-19 in many regions cannot be determined. “Most of the deaths are not reported, so it is impossible to have a reliable calculation,” said Professor Mukherjee.

Other people were taken to hospital to treat the injuries, police said.

Indianapolis Police Department spokesman Genae Cook said police immediately arrived at the scene after receiving notification of the shooting at 23:00.

“Eight people died from bullets”, Ms. Cook said. This figure does not include gunmen.

According to Cook, it is too early to know if the gunman is an employee of the facility. His motives are also unknown. An investigation is underway.

In a statement, FedEx said: “Safety is our top priority. We are working to gather more information and are working with investigating agencies.”

The base of the shooting had more than 4,000 people working.

An unnamed witness told local media he heard gunshots while working and looked up to see the villain. As he bent down, he heard more gunshots.

This person then ran out of the building and saw another collapsed on the ground.

A series of shootings have occurred in the US in recent weeks.

In early April, President Biden announced a series of executive orders aimed at curbing gun violence.

“Gun violence in this country is an epidemic and a shame to the world. For God’s sake this must stop”, Mr. Biden stressed.

According to Biden’s new decrees, the US Justice Department will increase sweepstakes to reduce the increase in “ghost guns” and support states to pass “red flag law” that controls the identity of gun owners.
